The 3 R's, by: Jack Johnson

Three it's a magic number
Yes it is, it's a magic number
Because two times three is six And three times six is eighteen
And the eighteenth letter in the alphabet is R We've got three R's we're going to talk about today
We've got to learn to
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
If you're going to the market to buy some juice
You've got to bring your own bags and you learn to reduce your waste
And if your brother or your sister's got some cool clothes
You could try them on before you buy some more of those
Reuse, we've got to learn to reuse
And if the first two R's don't work out And if you've got to make some trash
Don't throw it out
Recycle, we've got to learn to recycle,
We've got to learn to
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Because three it's a magic number
Yes it is, it's a magic number
3, 3, 3
3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36
33, 30, 27, 24, 21, 18, 15, 12, 9, 6, and
3, it's a magic number

GOING GREEN

BY: AVET Q.


"Going Green Is The New Black": so a news article read.

Ironically it took Movie Stars to make the ideal spread.

With their beautiful 'Green' homes and their funky 'Green' cars,

They've set the 'Going Green' tone by far.

We're encouraged to recycle, reduce, reuse,

Reduce our carbon footprint, or our planet we'll lose.

It's about time we took a concerted stand,

Let's make our contribution, let's make 'Going Green' a name brand.


The message of this poem is how society is following celebrities, going green and setting the new trends. We should reduce, reuse, and recycle to help our earth and save the planet.
